How large do they run? Full size?

Yes. I take my Common Projects sizing in these (40 in both CPs and Nappi boots, 8.5 in Nikes and stuff, low-volume 8.5D Brannock). The toebox is very generous, and the instep can be laced up pretty tight, so they're a bit flexible on sizing, too...my old pair of 41s was absolutely wearable even though I had a healthy chunk of space in front of my toes.

FYI, the brown boot there is kudu, and I'm 99% sure it's the same CF Stead Waxed Kudu Visvim and Truman have used. I've got a pair in Nero, size 40, that I'll be shipping back tomorrow because I don't need both these and my Daytons, as much as I like em, for anybody else looking for that size in black.

For any of y'all with small feet (41 or below), there's a smattering of stuff on sale on Nappi's site, too. You do have to hunt for it, though.

Thanks for that, really good info. Do you have any input into the barneys sizing? Is it pretty straightforward like 10=43?

 

[Callusing]

Yep. Standard sizing as per the chart.

Thanks, I never trust those though, every company is different. I know C&J and Trickers have weird conversions on some shoes but not others

Your chore coat collection is

[shameless plug] my friend Tasha runs an etsy shop with some chore coats, check her out: https://www.etsy.com/shop/ConsistencyProject/items?ref=hdr_shop_menu&section_id=21125377

She goes out to these militaria warehouses all the time to find the dope ****. Still waiting on something large enough for me. Had a close call today with a moleskin double breasted chore coat...

Some of those chore coats look pretty rad @troika

Shout out to @RegisDB9 for helping me pick up a Grail of mine. Margiela boucle sweater.

Just got it and it's glorious.

I didn't want to risk sizing issues so I bought it in large and xl final sale. If anyone else is interested PM me and I will sell the one that doesn't fit for cost + shipping + PayPal fees.

 

[nahneun]

so wear one regular sized and the other oversized in different fits :foo:

 

[OccultaVexillum]

Yeah @Timbaland if you got the XL off Yoox and it's too big send me a pm. Will kop.
